一、吹角节当献之祭(V1-6)
七月初一日(提斯利月),就是吹角节,是犹太人的农历新年。神吩咐在这一日要吹角做纪念、什么劳碌的工都不可做,要将火祭献给耶和华。这日要献上馨香祭,需要公牛犊一只、公绵羊一只、一岁公羊羔七只。除此以外还有素祭,用调油的细面;为一只公牛要献伊法十分之三;为一只公羊要献伊法十分之二;为那七只羊羔,每只要献伊法十分之一。也要献上一只公山羊为赎罪祭。
吹角节是七月初一日,因此也是月朔,这一天不但要献上常献的燔祭、月朔的燔祭和赎罪祭,还要额外献上燔祭和赎罪祭。弟兄姐妹,这里提醒我们,在每一月、每一年新的开始,都要来到神的面前,求圣灵光照我们、对付自己的罪,寻求神的悦纳。
二、赎罪日当献之祭(V7-11)
赎罪祭日的献祭内容和吹角日是一样的。这一日神不断吩咐百姓们一定要守为圣会,并要刻苦己心,就是谦卑自己的心来到神的面前赎罪。神很严厉提醒百姓,凡不刻苦己心的,凡这日做什么工的,必从民中剪除。大家要守这日为圣安息日,并要刻苦己心,从这月初九日晚上到次日晚上,要守为安息日。
三、住棚节当献之祭(V12-38)
七月十五日开始住棚节。这一个节期所献的燔祭数量特别大,因为住棚节是一年中最后的节期,预表神的永远计划完成的日子,那时全地都满溢着神的恩典,活在这丰满中的子民,都主动地向神献上自己,承认基督是主,是王。住棚节也预表是神的帐幕在人间,神与人同住、也预表是羔羊的婚宴。
总结:期待神的节期,预备自己甘心献上(V39-40)
神今天告诉以色列百姓的献祭是非常多和仔细的,虽然我们今天不需要带那么多祭物来到神的面前,但是我们可以思想我们每一次是带着什么预备和期待来到神的节期,我们是否真的做好准备来,你为神预备的是什么呢?你有预留神的节期吗?让我们预备自己,期待每一年神的节期!

Introduction: Don’t bring two bunch of bananas
1. Sacrifice for the Feast of Trumpets (V1-6)
The first day of July (the month of Tishri) is the Feast of Trumpets, the Jewish Lunar New Year. God commanded that on this day the trumpet should be blown as a memorial, and no customary work should be done, but an offering made by fire should be offered to the Lord. On this day, a burnt offering with a sweet aroma was to be offered, requiring one bull, one ram, and seven one-year-old lambs. Besides these there shall be a grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil; three-tenths of an ephah for a bull; two-tenths of an ephah for a ram; and a tenth of an ephah for each of the seven lambs. Offer one-tenth of the law. A male goat must also be offered as a sin offering.
The Feast of Trumpets is on the first day of the seventh month and the first day of the new moon. On this day, not only the regular burnt offerings, the new moon burnt offerings, and the sin offerings must be offered, but additional burnt offerings and sin offerings must be offered. Brothers and sisters, here we are reminded that at the beginning of every month and every year, we must come before God and ask the Holy Spirit to enlighten us, deal with our sins, and seek God’s approval.
2. Sacrifice to be offered on the Day of Atonement (V7-11)
The content of the sacrifices on the Day of Atonement is the same as that on the Day of Trumpets. On this day, God kept instructing the people to observe a holy meeting and to harden their hearts, that is, to humble their hearts and come before God to atone for their sins. God reminded the people very sternly that anyone who does not harden his heart and does any work on that day will be cut off from among the people. Everyone is to keep this day as a holy Sabbath, and they are to discipline their souls. From the evening of the ninth day of this month to the evening of the next day, they are to keep it as a Sabbath.
3. Sacrifice for the Feast of Tabernacles (V12-38)
The Feast of Tabernacles begins on July 15th. The number of burnt offerings offered at this feast is particularly large, because the Feast of Tabernacles is the last feast of the year, which typifies the day when God’s eternal plan is completed. At that time, the whole earth will be overflowing with God’s grace. The people in the fullness actively offer themselves to God and acknowledge that Christ is Lord and King. The Feast of Tabernacles also represents God’s tabernacle in the world, God’s dwelling with man, and it also represents the wedding supper of the Lamb.
Conclusion: Look forward to God’s feasts and prepare yourself to give willingly (V39-40)
Brothers and sisters, God told the Israelites today that the sacrifices they made were very numerous and careful. Although we don’t need to bring so many sacrifices to come before God today, we can think about what preparations and expectations we bring every time we come. Are we really ready for God’s feasts? What have you prepared for God? Have you set aside God’s feasts? Let us prepare ourselves and look forward to God’s feasts every year!
